The length of a cylinder is measured with a meter rod having least count $0.1\, cm$. Its diameter is measured with vernier calipers having least count $0.01\, cm$. Given that length is $5.0 \,cm$. and radius is $2.0 \,cm$. The percentage error in the calculated value of the volume will be ......... $\%$

The dimensions of a cone are measured using a scale with a least count of $2 mm$. The diameter of the base and the height are both measured to be $20.0 cm$. The maximum percentage error in the determination of the volume is. . . . .
An optical bench has $1.5 m$ long scale having four equal divisions in each $cm$. While measuring the focal length of a convex lens, the lens is kept at $75 cm$ mark of the scale and the object pin is kept at $45 cm$ mark. The image of the object pin on the other side of the lens overlaps with image pin that is kept at $135 cm$ mark. In this experiment, the percentage error in the measurement of the focal length of the lens is. . . . .
If the random error in the arithmetic mean of $50$ observations is $\alpha$, then the random error in the arithmetic mean of $150$ observations would be
A students measures the distance traversed in free fall of a body, the initially at rest, in a given time. He uses this data to estimate $g$ , the acceleration due to gravity . If the maximum percentage errors in measurement of the distance and the time are $e_1$ and $e_2$ respectively, the percentage error in the estimation of $g$ is
If the percentage errors in measuring the length and the diameter of a wire are $0.1 \%$ each. The percentage error in measuring its resistance will be:
